An Ordinary Habit Left This Nurse With A Coin-Sized Hole In Her Nose

These days, it seems like we’ve reached a point of health awareness and research where we know that certain things are definitely bad for us. Smoking, for example, is decreasing in the states every year, as many now realize that if you smoke, it’s not a matter of if you’ll get sick, but when. Certain foods have been revealed to be totally unhealthy, and things like “low-fat” treats sweetened with chemicals don’t have the same appeal that they used to.

Unfortunately, despite our current awareness for what’s good for us, some of the damage has already been done.

Take, for instance, the case of Jade Thrasher. This young woman had a habit for over a decade that she didn’t quite realize was doing so much damage — until, of course, it was too late. Read her harrowing tale, and if you partake in the same habit, it might be time to consider giving it a rest. Warning: Some of these images may be disturbing to look at.
